Digital Citizenship.... What's the Worry?!? |
America’s children are growing up in the center of a technological revolution. The line between the possibilities and perils of digital life, however, is thin. The stakes are high. Kids are more comfortable in this world than are most of the adults in their lives.
Yet, however much it seem that our students have been born with iPods growing out of their ears, they haven't learned to handle digital communications by osmosis any more than they innately knew how to write a résumé or hold a fork. Given this potentially dangerous void, schools and educators will increasingly extend their supervisory reach by giving lessons, and more importantly, modeling best practices at every grade level on digital citizenship.

We are outnumbered!... What's next? |
First thing's first, we are outnumbered! Students live online while many of us just visit! However, just because our students are connected doesn't mean they have been given best practices or have discussed the rules of the internet.
Will your students, or your colleagues, for that matter:
Connect responsibly?
Spill too much information online?
Borrow ideas recklessly?
Think critically and behave safely?
Risk their reputation based on poor online choices?

What is digital citizenship?
What does good digital citizenship practice look like in my classroom and community?
What areas are a high priority for me/my school and why?
How can I help my students develop a sense of ethics and responsibility when using technology?
How do I envision my school developing/strengthening an action plan for promoting safe online behavior and good digital citizenship?
Consider The Following |
Digital Citizenship is more than just a teaching tool; it is a way to prepare students and all technology users for a society full of technology. Too often we are seeing students, as well as adults, misusing and abusing technology but are not sure what to do. The issue is more than what the users do not know but what is considered appropriate technology usage, to create a responsible digital citizen. What do you want to see in your classroom? Where do you see yourself modeling Digital Citizenship?
